Episode Details

Texas Tech, even without Brendan Sorsby playing QB, enters 2026 as the prohibitive favorite in the Big 12. Who are the 3 teams most likely to be able to challenge the Red Raiders?

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin makes his 2026 record prediction for the South Carolina Gamecocks. Is Shane Beamer under as much pressure to win as some have said?

Virginia surprised many in their run to the ACC Championship Game last year, on the cusp of the 12-team Playoff. Will Tony Elliott's team be as competitive this year?
